New Partnership Seeks to Protect Endangered Coastal Douglas-fir Ecosystems

 

Victoria, BC – The unique natural environment of BC’s south coast is disappearing at an alarming rate, sparking coordinated action from a wide range of conservation biologists, concerned citizens and private landowners. A consortium of partners have joined together to form the Coastal Douglas-fir and Associated Ecosystems Conservation Partnership (CDFCP), which aims to increase the level of protection, raise awareness about the plight of BC’s iconic Coastal Douglas-fir forests and associated ecosystems, and to coordinate the actions of governments and other groups working to address this significant conservation issue.
